× 'Yes. I usually wear a watch and uh, actually it's uh, digital watch.'
✓ 'Yes. I usually wear a watch and, actually, it's a digital watch.'
'a digital watch' requires the indefinite article a before a singular countable noun. Also add commas for natural pauses.
× 'I check time with it and it's very convenient.'
✓ 'I check the time with it, and it's very convenient.'
'the time' needs the definite article because we refer to a specific concept (the time). Adding a comma improves sentence flow.
× 'Have you ever got a watch as a gift?'
✓ 'Have you ever gota watch as a gift?'
'Have you ever got' is nonstandard in some varieties; the standard present perfect form is 'Have you ever gotten' (US) or 'Have you ever got' (UK). If targeting neutral correctness, use 'Have you ever received a watch as a gift?'. Use 'received' to avoid regional ambiguity.
× 'Yes, uh, my wife, umm, gave me a watch as her birthday gift, uh, a couple years ago and uh, I still hold it, uh, uh, when I uh, attended some formal conference.'
✓ 'Yes, my wife gave me a watch as a birthday gift a couple of years ago, and I still wear it when I attend formal conferences.'
Use 'a birthday gift' (article), 'a couple of years ago' (add of), 'wear it' instead of 'hold it' for wearing, and maintain present habitual 'I still wear' with present simple; change 'attended' to present 'attend' to match habitual action. Also pluralize 'conferences' for generality.
× 'So I would like to wear it.'
✓ 'So I would like to wear it.'
'So I would like to wear it.' is grammatically correct; no change needed. (No plural/singular error.)
× 'I think a watch can be a SIM symbol of our social status.'
✓ 'I think a watch can be a simple symbol of our social status.'
'SIM' is likely a typo for 'simple'. Use the adjective 'simple' to modify 'symbol'.
× 'So some people buy expensive one to display their wealth and prestige.'
✓ 'So some people buy expensive ones to display their wealth and prestige.'
'one' should be pluralized to 'ones' to agree with 'some people' buying multiple items in general; alternatively use 'an expensive watch'.
× 'Also luxury orchids are seen and fashionable accessory and sometimes are the investment.'
✓ 'Also, luxury watches are seen as fashionable accessories and sometimes as investments.'
Multiple errors: 'orchids' is incorrect word choice—should be 'watches'. Use 'seen as' for passive perception, plural 'accessories' to match plural subject, and 'investments' in plural. Add commas for clarity.
× 'Yes, I think wearing water is useful because it help me much time and stay punctual.'
✓ 'Yes, I think wearing a watch is useful because it helps me save time and stay punctual.'
'water' is a typo; should be 'a watch' with article. 'helps' for third person singular, and phrase 'save time' is correct instead of 'help me much time'.
× 'For example, glassing at my watch during time during meeting of traveling let me keep to my schedule without checking my phone.'
✓ 'For example, glancing at my watch during meetings or while traveling lets me stick to my schedule without checking my phone.'
Use 'glancing' not 'glassing'; 'meetings' plural and 'while traveling' clearer; verb must be third person singular 'lets' to agree with subject 'glancing'; 'stick to my schedule' is natural phrasing. Removed redundant 'during' and corrected prepositions.
